How do people reason so flexibly about new problems, bringing to bear globally-relevant knowledge while staying locally-consistent? Can we engineer a system that can synthesize bespoke world models (expressed as probabilistic programs) on-the-fly?

How do people reason while still staying coherent – as if they have an internal ‘world model’ for situations they’ve never encountered? A new paper on open-world cognition (preview at the world models workshop at #ICML2025!)

I'm deeply honored to receive one of this year's @cogsci_soc Glushko Dissertation Prizes. While I'm still in a state of disbelief about the award, what I can say in no uncertain terms, is that developing these ideas with @rebecca_saxe has been immensely formative and rewarding.

In a seminal paper by @LakeBrenden @TomerUllman @MITCoCoSci and @gershbrain put forward core domains of intelligence that are easy for people to reason about but difficult for machines. These include intuitive physics, causal reasoning, and intuitive psychology, among others.

There have been tremendous advances at the nexus of AI + mathematics. But it’s worth reflecting what our goals are for automated mathematicians. In our brief position piece for the #MathAI workshop @NeurIPSConf, we argue now is a great time to look to CogSci for reflection! 1/

Once upon a time, a mighty sphinx, the Area Chair of Thebes, terrorized all who dared to cross the mountain path into the city. Travelers would be asked the riddle: “How is a photon like a rational agent?” Failure to answer resulted in an immediate desk reject. #NeurIPS2023
